How Are Your ATB Sets Progressing?

ATB? I'm still working on upgrading my set of Statehoods!

(A lot of mint state early-years are finding their way into circulation now. Down from a prevalence of 2005-2006 a few years ago. It's odd. Collection dumps being year-restrictive and such.

This is what my set looks like:





I still need several years worth of the 50 States silver proofs for my album, so I won't be starting ATBs until that's finished. Then, I will most likely start slowly working on a silver proof ATB album as an aside.

Historically I collect from circulation, but the ATB Quarters seem hard to come by so I buy the circulating quarter set from the mint every year.

@CollegeBarbers, my "from circulation" collection still needs some rounding out; I'm missing a quarter here and there over the past few years. Currently that is housed in a P&D Whitman album. I think I will buy a box or two of quarters from the bank to round out that set, look for W, S-business, proofs, and upgrades once the series comes to a conclusion.

I have all the Proof, Uncirc and Silver Proof quarters from Mint sets in duplicate, so when the series is over I will likely crack sets from each year to start a PPDDSS "master set". I have very few of the S business strikes, if any, nor any of the W quarters. It's going to be quite the process ($) for that bad boy, especially to get them in mint state.

Thanks to subscriptions I also will have a complete collection of the 3-coin sets for each quarter and the 5-oz pucks.

I'd say I'm in pretty good shape.

It's been a fun series but I'll be glad when it's over.

In addition to pulling from circulation, this has been my goal as well.


, especially because it will take a while after the series is over to catch up on the coins I'm missing.

I have my State Quarters P+D completed with nice examples from circulation, S mint in their proof sets still. as far as ATB I am current up to some of the Ds from last year and this year. I don't do the S mint, but likely will get them all in one shot once it's finished if I get around to it. I'm not to keen on it because they don't start at the beginning of the series. Same thing for Proofs here, still in the sets.

I liked hunting the P+D from circulation.

I have the Dansco 7145 P&D album. It is missing just 1 D from 2018 and 1 D from 2019 through 2019. I also have separate P and D maps (it's fun to fill these also). I am missing a few from each map but I will get them eventually. Most of the coins in the Dansco and the maps were obtained from circulation. I purchase 1 silver proof set each year (back to 1999) but I don't break these up. I don't get the regular proof set nor the uncirculated set (but I have a couple of these). I have been buying 2 of each of the S mint circulation strike quarters of each design from a local dealer. I have all of these through 2018 so far. I have been thinking about putting these in a separate book but they are still in 2x2's so far. I have found a couple W quarters by luck. I would like to get all of these but I will wait until the price is more normal. I wonder if after this ATB run is done if they will start over with a new run of ATB Quarters. Hmmm...
